MiFID II/MiFIR will come into force from 3 January 2018. This new legislative framework will improve the functioning of financial markets making them more efficient, resilient and transparent. The protection of investors is strengthened through the introduction of new requirements on product governance and independent investment advice, the improvement of requirements in several areas, including the responsibility of management bodies, information and reporting to clients, cross-selling and best execution.
